Home design - contemporary home design idea in Charleston

The custom wood pergola is centered on the pool. It is not only a beautiful focal point within the landscape but serves to separate the vegetable garden from the lawn and pool area.

The Remodeled Backyard The old pool area of this backyard featured a pool that was surrounded by two brick steps up to the pool, creating almost a tripping hazard. The spa was very small and located at the far end of the pools. The walls retaining the pool area were at odd angles, so I tried to preserve some walls for budgetary reasons and changed some out of design necessity. This photo of the completed remodeled pool shows the new colored/stained paving with precast coping, new glass tile and white Pebble-Sheen plaster. I removed the spa in the deep end and created a seating area. Above the old pool was a slump-stone raised bond beam with a tired Spanish style fountain into the pool. The are behind the pool was a mixture of concretes and two narrow to be a functional sunning deck. I designed the new spa, centered in the pool as the focal point with a weeping water wall behind and spilling from the spa into the pool with symmetrical steps flanking each side of the pool with stepping pad walkways on each side leading to the spa. Outside of the living room, I created a formal fountain garden. We refurbished the existing patio cover off of the kitchen and added steps and planters leading to the pool area, as well as, a fire pit feature. Photo: Wendy Harper Master Builder: Ken Palmer

This is a rectangular pool that is centered on the family room windows of the primary focal point of the house. The spa is recessed in the pool to provide good access and not break up the symmetrical lines of the space. By viewing the length of the pool it gives the allusion of more depth to the yard. The understated diving platform provides the only safe place to dive in the pool and a water feature to drown out street noise. Colored and textured concrete were used for the deck and to cap the existing porches. Designed by Mike Farley.

This home was fully remodeled with a cape cod feel including the interior, exterior, driveway, backyard and pool. We added beautiful moulding and wainscoting throughout and finished the home with chrome and black finishes. Our floor plan design opened up a ton of space in the master en suite for a stunning bath/shower combo, entryway, kitchen, and laundry room. We also converted the pool shed to a billiard room and wet bar.
